* man/local.mk: With commit v8.19-84-g08cf455, man page creation
would fail when using a build directory name containing e.g.,
spaces.
|
|
* man/local.mk: Creating a prog.1 man page requires running
src/prog --help.
List the exceptions, e.g., install.1 depends on src/ginstall
and arch.1 depends on src/uname.
|
|
* man/local.mk (distclean-local): Remove $(ALL_MANS) when doing
a VPATH build. If it's not done, generated manpages can be left
around in the build directory after a "make distclean", causing
failures in "make distcheck".
|
|
* man/local.mk (.x.1): Use '$(MKDIR_P)' rather than bare 'mkdir'
where appropriate. Reported by Jim Meyering.
|
|
* man/local.mk (mandpep): Rename ...
(mandeps): ... like this. Make $(ALL_MANS) depend on its
content. List 'src/system.h' in here, instead of making
$(ALL_MANS) depend on it explicitly.
(man/*.1): No need to list $(mandep) among the dependencies
any longer.
|
|
* man/local.mk: All of the manpages should depend on 'src/system.h',
and all of them should be cleaned by "make maintainer-clean", that
is, added to MAINTAINERCLEANFILES. Make it be so.
Some minor cosmetic tweakings and reorderings while at it.
|
|
* configure.ac: Adjust and improve few comments.
(MAN): Rename ...
(man1_MANS): ... to this.
Ensure it isn't initialized in all Makefiles (which would lead
to spurious errors), by calling AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE on it.
Also call AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE on 'EXTRA_MANS', for consistency.
* man/local.mk (man1_MANS): Simply define to '@man1_MANS@'.
|
|
And list $(man1_MANS) directly in $(EXTRA_DIST) instead.
This is similar to what is done for $(EXTRA_MANS), thus
improving consistency and readability.
* man/local.mk (dist_man1_MANS): Rename ...
(man1_MANS): ... like this.
(EXTRA_DIST): Add its contents.
* cfg.mk (check-x-vs-1): Fix a botched comment.
|
|
* man/local.mk (man_aux): This was used only once, so inline its
expansion at its sole point of use ...
(EXTRA_DIST): ... here.

The AC_SUBST'd variable '$(NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT)' is only used in
makefile expressions expanding the list of manual pages that are not
built by default (but might need to be when a distribution tarball
is created). Such expressions exploited a feature of make variable
expansion -- namely, $(VAR:%=dir/%.x) -- that, while seemingly quite
portable in practice, is not POSIX-conforming, and could break on
lesser vendor make implementations. So kill two birds with one stone,
by getting rid of the $(NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT) intermediate variable
and improving makefile portability in the process.
While at it, we also clean up some other minor naming inconsistency
and useless indirection.
* configure.ac (NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT): Don't define or AC_SUBST
anymore; instead ...
(EXTRA_MANS): ... define and AC_SUBST these.
* man/local.mk (extra_man_1): Rename ...
(EXTRA_MANS): ... like this, explicitly making clear it's AC_SUBST'd.
(extra_man_x): It's used only once, no need to define it; just inline
its only expansion where needed.
(EXTRA_DIST): Adjust.
(ALL_MANS): New, union of $(EXTRA_MANS) and $(dist_man1_MANS).
* cfg.mk (check-x-vs-1, sc_option_desc_uppercase): Rely on $(ALL_MANS)
rather than on $(NO_INSTALL_PROGS_DEFAULT) and $(dist_man1_MANS).
|
|
* src/local.mk (dist-hook): Don't use this to ensure all the
programs, even the ones disabled by default or by the user, are
built (doing so is required to ensure the distributed manpages
are properly built). This would build those programs too late
anyway, causing errors like:
$ make dist
make dist-xz am__post_remove_distdir='@:'
make[1]: Entering directory `~/src/coreutils'
GEN man/arch.1
help2man: can't get '--help' info from man/arch.td/arch
make[1]: *** [man/arch.1] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory `~/src/coreutils'
make: *** [dist] Error 2
Instead, ...
* man/local.mk (extra_man_x, extra_man_1): define these ...
($(extra_man_1)): ... and make this depend on $(all_programs).
(EXTRA_DIST): Adjust.
Adjust some comments as well.
|
|
This is more natural, now that the top-level Makefile has access to
all the variables and rules once defined only in 'man/Makefile.am'
* man/local.mk (all_programs, sc_option_desc_uppercase,
sc_man_file_correlation check-x-vs-1, check-programs-vs-x): Move
from here ...
* cfg.mk: ... to here. Adjust some comments in the process.
|
|
* Makefile.am: Include 'man/local.mk'.
(SUBDIRS): Remove 'man'.
* configure.ac ($MAN): Adjust so that each of its entries has a leading
'man/' component.
(AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove 'man/Makefile'.
* man/Makefile.am: Rename ...
* man/local.mk: ... like this. With further adjustments: each 'foo.1'
target renamed like 'man/foo.1', each '../src/foo.c' dependency as
'src/foo.c', and each '$(srcdir)' usage as '$(srcdir)/man'. Also ...
(mandep): Adjust, removing the leading '../' component.
Several whitespace adjustments while at it.
(ASSORT): Remove, it's already defined in the top-level Makefile.am.
* cfg.mk (sc_option_desc_uppercase, sc_man_file_correlation): Remove
the associated recipes, they are now directly available from the
included 'man/local.mk'. Actually, the other changes in this commit
have made these recipes instable and not completely correct, but that
will be fixed in later changes.
